Not a lot made this stand out as NLP

By Adlane Bellahcene on 3/23/2020

Extremely useful and practical knowledge for my productivity and time management !

By Bretton Jones on 3/9/2020

Great course with valuable techniques taught. My reading and words per a minute doubled from the start of the course to the final exercise.

By Muhammad Sufain Rashid on 5/5/2019

sounds like me .. points were on par to my thinking of the learning experience where repetition instills second natures and consistency is the key to success :)

By Thulani on 1/4/2019

Yes it is, I am really in need of this course, to balance my wheel of life : need to RESEARCH - About my Health: my exercises, good food to eat and possible share all I have read with others - Wellness Coaching. Develop my WEALTH- read as much as I could on increasing my income, saving it and investing it. My CAREER: as I value personal development, reading is the foundation. More than anything to save me my 3 precious resources - time, money and my energy Time : read more in the short period of time Money : to quickly browse if a material (e.g book) will add value to what I want to achieve, helping me to do self development not shelf development Energy : save me from reading unnecessary information

I've learned a lot about the history of speed reading so far

By Machoene Thupana on 7/6/2017

So far so good, the information provided is authentic and relevant .

By Lorna Thome on 3/1/2016

I enjoyed the clarity of Wayne's speech and his explanations

By Vanessa on 3/1/2016

The fact that the course presenter has a South African accent makes it a little amusing to listen to the videos (hence keeps my attention!). Otherwise, he speaks clearly and I am enjoying the length of the videos so as I do not become too distracted. The "Active" Exercises where you are actively speed reading are great. They're challenging however not so much that you feel discouraged.
